Webmin 0.87

Webmin is a Web server administration tool based on Perl scripts. It 
has a lot of adherents and commonly found in the world of Unix and 
Linux. Webmin requires Perl 5 which is installed by default on Mac OS 
X.  The Webmin home page is at:

http://www.webmin.com/webmin/index.html

Webmin can be downloaded at:

http://www.webmin.com/webmin/download/webmin-0.87.tar.gz

Documentation is available at:

http://www.swelltech.com/support/webminguide/index.html

The MySQL module is installed in the default package.

Make sure that Perl is available (it should be):

% ls /usr/bin/perl

If /usr/bin/perl is returned then it is installed.

http://localhost:10000/

Webmin downloads as webmin-0.87.tar.gz and Mac OS X should handle 
unstuffing it.

root# mv -R webmin-0.87 /usr/local/
root# cd /usr/local/webmin-0.87/
root# ./setup.sh

Webmin uses its own password protected web server to provide access
to the administration programs. The setup script needs to know :

    web server already using this port.
  - The login name required to access the web server.
  - The password required to access the web server.
  - The hostname of this system that the web server should use.
  - If the webserver should use SSL (if your system supports it).
  - Whether to start webmin at boot time.

Web server port (default 10000):
Login name (default admin): root
Login password:
Password again:
Web server hostname (default localhost):
